Forecastle Festival will be taking a pause in 2023. It’s incredible to see what this festival has become and how the Louisville community has grown around it over the past 20 years.

There are some things that we want to work on and improve for the future, so we’re going to take some time to strategize and determine the best path forward for the festival.

We are grateful for your loyalty and support over the years and will come back to you with updates. We hope to share more good times in the future.

YOUR MUSICAL ADVENTURE AWAITS

A place to come together, Forecastle, brings artists from around the world to the waterfront of Louisville for a whale of a good time.

CELEBRATING KENTUCKY’S TREASURE

Kentucky marks the spot when it comes to bourbon – seriously, 95% of the world’s bourbon is produced here! As a result, Forecastle is about much more than just the music. It’s a celebration of unrivaled local eats, drinks, and Kentucky flair! As you cruise around the grounds, sip on some bourbon, soak in the waterfront views, and shop from some of the best in the Commonwealth.
